    I have been going to Josh's for years. This is the epitome of a local's bar. The atmosphere is not due to the sparse decor, but the people. Local bands are showcased every Friday. Donna makes the best mixed drinks and the food is always wonderful. You get so much great food for such a low price. Truly a diamond in the rough!

    Oftentimes I'll order a cheeseburger and fries to go after work on Fridays. After reading the reviews and seeing the cheap prices I decided to order from here. I requested no grilled and buttered bun as well as lettuce, tomato, and onion only, (I HATE mayo on sandwiches!). When I arrived and after parking my car I approached the front door and almost turned around. Can you say eyesore? But I was hungry so I went in and whelp, the interior wasn't much better than that door! The lady who took my order was nice on the phone as well as in person. So I get home and unveil the hope to be masterpiece burger and guess what? MAYO YUCK!!!

    Stopped in for a burger based on the Yelp reviews, since we were in the area. It's a decent sized place with pool tables, electronic darts and lots of TVs. I imagine it can get pretty busy on a weekend night and it is definitely a locals dive bar kind of place. We were there for a late lunch, so it was pretty empty.

    The bar tender was working by herself and she cooked our food. She was super friendly. The burgers are HUGE, so it's a good value for the money - they are served with a big pile of crinkle cut fries. I wasn't a fan of the seasoning on the burger (I'm a purist), and they were a little over for my taste.

    This looks like a good neighborhood hang out if you're looking to get your pitcher of beer on and eat standard bar fare.

    We really enjoyed the steak dinner and for the price of $13.99 plus two sides, it was definite worth it. I would eat here before Outback Steakhouse any day! I'm not the type of person fond of chain restaurants. Food came out fast and our waitress was very nice. For a Saturday night the bar only had maybe 5 people hanging out (and they were sitting at the bar) but the rainy weather has been going on for days, plus we found it to our advantage since we didn't want to eat at a rowdy bar. While we were waiting for our food another group came in to eat and they had some really good looking nachos!
